Grant Activity:
Understanding neurodegeneration caused by oligodendroglial dysfunction
Purpose:
Globular glial tauopathy (GGT) is a recently described frontotemporal dementia, a debilitating early-onset neurodegenerative disorder. GGT is characterised by abnormal tau protein in oligodendroglia, the main neuron support cell. Previous research has focused on neurons, which cause neurodegeneration and clinical symptoms with little consideration of oligodendroglia. This study will investigate how dysfunction in oligodendroglia causes neurodegeneration in human and preclinical disease models.
